You didn't give much useful information in your message (not even a line number!), but I bet I found the problem.

Lines 149 and 150 of Makefile.am have spaces instead of tabs as indentation characters. Even the documentation for GNU make says that "A tab character must come at the beginning of every command line to distinguish command lines from other lines in the makefile.", so it really should have failed too. Fix those two lines before running ./configure and your build should run okay.
